One of these genes is the homeobox gene, which is located on the X chromosome and is inherited exclusively from our fathers.

All have a set of very similar genes (the homeobox genes) that define their basic body plan. As they grow, the differences that will distinguish the embryos as adults become more and more apparent.

In many animals, including humans, a prominent group of genes involved in cell development, including many that encode TFs, contain a 180 base-pair sequence called the homeobox. The homeobox ...

For example, by altering the expression and function of the engrailed homeobox genes Dr. Sillitoe has found that cerebellar patterning cues control the precise targeting of excitatory and inhibitory ...
